Chico >> After a 12 year hiatus, opera returns to Chico State University as the Department of Music and Theatre presents Mozart's "The Magic Flute."
Originally written in German, this opera comeback will be performed in English by Chico State vocal students, community members, the University Chorus and Chamber Orchestra, using Andrew Porter's translation.
"The Magic Flute" is about a princess who has been kidnapped. A prince, along with his sidekick, take on the task of rescuing her. Muddled by various stumbling blocks, the rescue mission doesn't quite go as planned.
"'The Magic Flute' is a fantasy story, in a sense, though it certainly has significant cultural issues," said Bradley Martin, chair of the Department of Music and Theatre. Despite the cultural and societal issues presented, "it's a great play. It's family appropriate."
"There's some dialogue in it, so it's a bit like a musical theater piece." Martin said. "You can follow along with the story."
The last opera put on by the department was also "The Magic Flute," making this revival of the art on campus reminiscent of times past.
"It's a need for the students in their musical education. Certainly if you're a vocalist and you want to sing, you need to have the experience of singing. If you're not singing opera, you're not singing the main medium of your instrument of choice. It's like playing the violin without being in an orchestra."
One of the hopes of this production is to prepare students for the real world, Martin said. This hope comes to fruition in the performance of Anna Wiley, who will be playing the part of princess Pamina.
Wiley started taking private voice lessons during her sophomore year of high school. She has been practicing opera for nearly seven years, but has never performed in a main role, she said. She is especially excited about playing the part of Pamina.
"She starts out scared and naive. She's never left her mother's side. As the play progresses, she finds out what her values are and she finds her strength through different trials," Wiley said.
Martin said "it's a great opera for students to get the experience of opera."
Performances will take place Friday and Saturday in Rowland-Taylor Recital Hall, beginning at 7:30 p.m. For tickets, call the University Box Office, 898-6333. For more information, call the Department of Music and Theatre, 898-5152.

The whistle-blower mechanism is too important -,Garba Shehu
Garba Shehu, Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity when he spoke with State House correspondents Wednesday said that the government is considering ways of enhancing the structural capacity of the whistle-blower mechanism. He said:
"In a word, government thinks that the whistle-blower mechanism is too important to be left without a strategic, national direction".
Garba Shehu continued to say:
"No public policy can succeed or go far enough without public support and participation. When the citizens realise they are victims of corruption, they may feel encouraged to join the efforts to expose looted funds".

Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 73132
Install Crash RedHat v7.3
Last modified: 2007-04-18 12:46:13 EDT
Description of Problem: Crash or abort during v7.3 install. Install repeated
multiple times mostly in graphic mode. Always crashed after disk format. Last
install in text mode completed disk format; image transfer process was about 50-
70% complete. A dump to floppy was requested but failed to occur after multiple

How Reproducible: Have run install multiple times, the last time in text mode.
Assumedly prior results were all the same.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Standard install accepted all defaults

3. Accepted Grub Loader
4. Accepted Gnome with minimal other packages
Actual Results:
Expected Results:
Additional Information - Only OS on the PC. Disk size about 4.3Gb

devhda2 7 537 38xx ext3 / yes
devhda3 538 1xx swp yes
Please test your installation media:
Closing due to inactivity.
Please reopen this bug report if you continue to have problems.
The media was tested immediately after testing was suggested and tested just
fine. The CD Drive was changed under the pretext that perhaps it was not fast
enough. But installation was still unsuccessful even with default
installation, including default partitioning. Default partitioning sets the
boot partition at 47MB, and yet the system to be loaded at 1300-1400 MB.
My assumption is the files/system in excess of 47MB would be loaded in the next
partition. The next item that could be a possible problem is the Video - its
on board and takes 4MB out of the 128MB system. The Video and 4MB memory is
recognized so one would assume it is handled properly. But since I have not had
a chance to look under the covers I am not able to check this item or see what
is going on.
Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated.

Conversations about security and life safety
Security and safety tips delivered to your inbox.
Ho! Ho! Hello everyone! Saint Nicholas here, or you can just call me Santa - most people do. I want to clear up a few rumors about me. People are always talking about how I'm "making a list and checking it twice, trying to find out who is naughty or nice..." Well, it is true I'm an avid list maker, but I'm not just keeping records of naughty and nice children. I'm much more concerned with making sure you all have a safe and happy holiday with your loved ones. I recently made a list of ways you can be safe and avoid extra stress and trips to the emergency room this holiday.
Please look over this list so you can safely enjoy the magic of the season. (Just so you know, I checked it three times!)
1. Please Don't Feed the Reindeer. No matter the species, feeding your pets leftovers or letting them get a hold of chocolate and other holiday sweets can make them very sick. Pets can also become ill by ingesting festive plants like Holly and Mistletoe. I can't have my reindeer down for the count on Christmas Eve, and you'll need to make sure your furry friends are feeling their very best this holiday too. For more great pet tips, visit the ASPCA Holiday Pet Safety Tips Page.
2. Make Sure The Lights are Right. Decorating for the holidays is half the fun, just ask Mrs. Claus! Holiday lights make your tree and your home more festive and unique. Make sure you always check all strands of lights and extension cords for damage before you use them. Remember to turn off all indoor and outdoor lights before you leave the house or go to sleep. Putting your lights on a timer is an easy way to make sure they turn off, especially if you're going to be out and about this holiday like me. I'd hate to see you end up as one of the 860 home fires caused by holiday decorations that happen each year. I can't wait to see your holiday decorations when I stop by your house Christmas eve! For more lighting and safety tips, click here.
3. Please Play Only with YOUR Toys. My elves and I work very hard to make sure that our toys are not only exactly what you want, but also the safest toy for you. Each year I bring you a toy that is age appropriate, I remove all of the plastic wrap and dispose of it while you are still sleeping to make it even safer. So play with the toys we so carefully created for you. Don't go after your older brother's toys - it may have smaller parts and pieces that could be a choking hazard. To learn more, my elves at Fisher-Price put together a great list of toy safety tips.
4. Be Very Particular About Where You Roast Your Chestnuts. An open fire is actually a really bad place for chestnut roasting. Four of the most dangerous days of the year for residential candle fires are Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve and New Year's Day. Think about using flameless candles this year. Another major fire hazard around the holidays? A dry Christmas tree. Keep your tree well-watered and at least three feet from all heating sources. Do you need some more fire safety tips?
5. Make Sure Your Sleigh is Ready To Go. I always prepare before my big trip. I plot my route, I make sure I have my AAA card and my spare reindeer before I leave. I've actually just upgraded to a newer model sleigh with a built in GPS and anti-theft system - what can I say, I'm a safety first guy. Before you leave for your holiday road trips make sure you prepare your vehicle, pack emergency supplies and check the weather so you can plan the best route.
Have I forgotten anything? If so, tell me quickly because I've got to prepare for my world-wide trip! I hope you have a safe and relaxing holiday with the ones you treasure most.
Often known by his other nicknames like Kris Kringle, Father Christmas, Santa Claus - or simply Santa. St. Nick lives and works in the North Pole building children's toys with his elf employees that he delivers once a year on Christmas Eve. He and Mrs. Claus enjoy playing online poker.

Change.org is a website that allows you to petition for just about anything that you want, from telling the President to not bomb Syria, to telling your local pound to release your beloved dog. Recently I've been getting emails from change.org about firefighters wanting Congress to restore funding that has been cut from wildfire budgets. I was curious, so I went to the website; I found hundreds of petitions about all kinds of issues, but those calling for Congress or local governments to restore funding to fire and police departments, reinstating laid off teachers, etc, etc, seemed to dominate. I've also been following local stories about the state of Texas and city governments slashing funding, shutting down fire stations, and laying off public servants all over the state. The uproar over these cuts has been impressive.
As I've followed these stories where Republican politicians have been gleefully slashing spending on services, infrastructure, health care, food stamps, and vital public services, I've wondered how many of these public servants and recipients of these services actually voted for the very politicians who are now so negatively affecting their lives. Texas is known as a "conservative" state, and and "fiscal conservatism" just rolls off the tongues of millions of Texans including firefighters, police officers, teachers, and even union members as they vote for "fiscal conservatives" in their local governments. At the very same time, they are fighting to keep their jobs that these very same politicians are taking away from them.
You only need watch Fox News (the official network of the GOP) for 3 or 4 minutes to know exactly what every Republican politician believes, and what they will do when they are in office. The GOP has been taken over by the Tea Party, and radical gerrymandering has put many otherwise unelectable people in the US Congress and state houses all over the country. Since then, these extremists have done what the Tea Party is dedicated to doing: destroying functional government, vilifying teachers and other public services, and slashing already historically low taxes.
So, here's some advice: If you are a public servant, and you voted for any Republican in the last 15 years, you have only yourself to blame for your plight. Republicans are very transparent in communicating their plan, and the party's upside-down dogma now pervades "conservative" thinking. They all believe that slashing spending improves the economy and lowers unemployment when the opposite is true. They believe that slashing taxes reduces deficits when the opposite is true. They believe that more guns equals more safety when the opposite is true. They believe that individuals don't deserve decent healthcare, safe food, reasonably priced electricity, water, or transportation. They believe that the health insurance industry is "free market", when it's not, not even close. They favor privatizing the military, aviation safety, and vital services like performing security background checks for federal contractors (USIS, the company that gave Aaron Alexis his security clearance just before he killed 12 people at the Navy Yard also gave NSA leaker Edward Snowden his clearance). The GOP has turned into a weird cult where clowns like Ted Cruz, Michele Bachmann, Louis Gohmert, and Allen West are actually considered to be something more than just the hateful screwballs they are, and who would be laughing stocks anywhere else other than the US Congress.
As long as people continue to habitually push the Republican button in the voting booth, our society will continue to deteriorate. You always get what you vote for.

Check out the latest article from Dr. Jen Mushtaler, recently featured in the Red Licorice Events E-Newsletter!
What is the one thing your dread most going into a race? For most women, it is the thought of starting their cycle right before race day! This "bad timing" can bring about anxiety and uncertainty, not to mention the usual symptoms of PMS such as heavy flow, cramping and irritability. Does it seem like your cycle always inevitably arrives right before race day? Is there anything that you can do about this?
Great news! It is actually medically safe to skip those cycles altogether and there are several ways to achieve this. Many of my patients enjoy a period-free lifestyle by staying on a continuous birth control pill. Not only is it safe to skip your periods when you are taking a balanced hormone regimen, but there is less chance of an unplanned pregnancy if you are sexually active. There are many different pill formulations and doses to achieve this, so if one doesn't quite work for you, we can try several different options.
Another choice is to use the birth control ring continuously. The FDA has not yet approved the ring in this manner. However, for years women with endometriosis took birth control continuously before FDA regimens were approved.
Some of my patients find that a progesterone coated IUD is perfect for freedom from periods and the hassles of a daily pill. Many patients have been mistakenly told that the IUD is an abortifacient, but this is not true. The IUD is actually a continuous spermicide, and it is over 99% effective in preventing unplanned pregnancy for up to five years. If you are uncomfortable with an IUD in the uterus, then you may be interested in Implanon. This is a single rod that is hidden underneath the skin. The rod is only millimeters thick so it does not interfere with working out and it is not noticeable. It lasts for up to three years, but these options are immediately reversed after removal.
Other patients are back on the athletic circuit after completing their families. They don't want to be bothered with periods or the hassles of a pill or ring. For these patients, an endometrial ablation is a great choice. An endometrial ablation is a minimally invasive procedure done in the office that permanently alters the lining of the uterus so that it does not build up. No build up, means no shedding and no period. There is no cutting involved and you still have all your own natural hormones.
All in all, you have many safe options to choose from, so we are sure to find just the treatment for you to keep you free for race day.

Following naturally on the engagement announcement and bridal showers come the wedding plans.
If the bride's house is small, a church wedding may be the solution for her, or else she may plan a house wedding with just a few chosen friends and relatives present.
Very often, if a church wedding is planned, there is a reception afterward at the bride's home. If only a few guests are invited to it, a wedding breakfast or dinner may be served, but if a large number of people are asked, buffet refreshments are sufficient.
According to the different seasons of the year, the weddings may take on varying characters. Spring, summer, fall and winter weddings, indoor and outdoor weddings, all have their own special charms.

Did you read it? — "Unapologetically a nurse"
Shutterstock | Zwiebackesser
How does the phrase "angels in uniform" make you feel? Proud? Appreciated? Misunderstood?
In a recent piece published by The Huffington Post, one nurse rejects the term "angel," along with the faultless, pure and obedient typecast that such a weighty comparison entails.
Read on to discover why the article's author believes that shedding the role of angels is the best, and perhaps the only way to help non-nurses understand, and therefor more accurately respect, the work that nurses really do:
I'm No Angel
I sit here starting at a blank computer screen, filled with quiet concern. It's simply that I have so many things to say to about the nineteen million and counting nurses across the planet, and not enough time in the world to say it.
The author does, however, move toward something very specific and important that she has to say about herself and her fellow nurses.
Nurses, she says, are not angels placed on earth to serve, as they are so often thought to be.
We are not diminutive and submissive and gentle souls that kiss boo-boos. We are not the starched white caps and perfectly polished shoes that history books portray. Nor are we fishnet stockings and naughty rendezvous in dark corners. We have been glamorized and fetishized and placed on a pedestal unlike any other profession, and yet the definition of what we are is only surpassed by the list of what we are not.

Contactless expenditure on MasterCards UK network up 375% in 2015
The figures also show that the number of active contactless cards in circulation in the UK grew by 188% in 2015 with contactless expenditure climbing by 375% year-on-year.
During the same period, the average size of contactless transaction was £8.80.
Scott Abrahams, group head of acceptance and emerging payments at MasterCard UK and Ireland, said: "The rise of contactless usage and acceptance is certainly encouraging, but so are the opportunities for retailers to capitalise on this trend.
"New research shows that in the UK, 59% of daily purchases are below £20, and therefore typically within the contactless limit. With the majority of transactions falling within the contactless price band, retailers are in the ideal position to take action and reap the benefits with so many consumers embracing this technology."
The data also shows the number of contactless cards and devices issued to consumers across Europe increased by 50% in 2015.

Outfits Under $50
April 23, 2016 by admin
Filed under Fashion Tips & Finds
I'm always on the lookout for a good bargain. Most of my scores are found at my favorite spots like Marshall's, T.J. Maxx and Ross but I will shop anywhere at anytime as long as it has the right fit. Lately I've been noticing that a lot of my outfits have been ranging from about $50-$100 so I decided to share my top 5 under $50 and next month $100. To start things off I decided to go with my latest buy a chambray top from Walmart. I already have a bunch of chambray tops (one with polka dots, one with florals and a thick dark denim one that I sometimes use as a little jacket) so I wasn't looking to buy more. However, I walked by the clearance rack at Walmart and spotted this light weight studded chambray top for $9 and I had to have it. At $9 it's got all the right details, a studded collar that I love, tab sleeves and the fabric is light enough to wear all year. Thinking it would be great to wear as a beach cover up… I have lots of plans for it but this time I wanted to pair it up with a mini and my brown sandals. Not bad for an entire outfit under $50. 🙂
What I'm Wearing:

What I Wore On Mother's Day

Dressing your post baby body can be a bit overwhelming but dressing up and standing in front of the camera in a outfit is just down right traumatic! I've made a pact with myself I'm forcing myself in front of the camera and wearing items that are already sitting in my closet (with the help of lots and of layers of spanx lol) in the hopes that it will motivate me away from my laptop and onto to the treadmill. I dont want to lose too much I just want to get rid of the belly my biggest pet peeve when getting dressed. This specific dress that I bought for 5 bucks at Marshalls has some pleating in the front which helps conceal the pooch. I decided to wear it for Mother's Day when I realized that it fit me. It was a tad big on me before and now it fits me perfectly…. talk about taking the good with the bad! I love the dress but hate that it fits. 🙂
What I'm Wearing: Dress – $5 from Marshall's (also seen here) | Boyfriend Blazer – $39.99 from Target (also seen here), Green Belt – $6 from Target (see how I worked it into another outfit here) | Striped Pumps – $29.99 from Forever21.com | Lexington Watch by Michael Kors from ShopBop.com (also seen here

I'm not a huge fan of purple but when I caught a glimpse of the $5 price tag on this dress, I immediately yanked it off the rack. It was then that I noticed the flecks of sparkle and the POCKETS. I was in love! My immediate thought was to pair it with my denim jacket but I thought I'd give it a quirky look by layering it over a polka dot button down and of course a belt (I try to belt just about anything I wear – it's kinda my thing). I love the definition and personality the belt gives my outfits.

I don't know about you but my handbag is a pretty important part of my outfit, and when I pick one it has to have every detail to fit my needs because I wear it all day long and it's usually filled to the brim! I was recently sent the Square Dark Orange Tote by Angela & Roi to review and immediately fell in love with the bag AND the company! It's a roomy tote that can easily carry an ipad or books and has separate pockets on the outside (essential for people like me that lose everything). It also has a detachable strap making it not only stylish but super functional. Angela & Roi offer a wide variety of vegan made handbags with a vintage feel that have a luxurious look without the hefty price tag. Their classic selection of bags and colors make them closet must-haves that will never go out of style. I also think it's brilliant how they incorporate charitable endeavors via color. How does the Donate by Color Mission work? Different medical issues relate to specific colors. For example, Colon Cancer awareness links traditionally with the color blue. When customers purchase a blue handbag, five dollars will automatically be donated to Colon Cancer Alliance. Check out my tote below and for more info visit – www.AngelaRoi.com

This weekend after I celebrated my sons 8th birthday I decided to take a few days off and do what I do best…SHOP! I took my time and hit a bunch of local Tampa boutiques that I love and found a ton of great stuff on sale. Although I never made it to a mall, I did make my obligatory stops at Ross, Marshalls and of course T.J. Maxx. My favorite purchases were the gray booties and chambray top seen below that I found for only $5 at T.J. Maxx. I've been looking for this particular worn-out grayish/taupe colored booties for some time now, and I finally found them on sale for only $20! The built in wedge gives me the height that I always want but still keeps me super comfy. I can't wait to wear them with my shorts and skirts this summer (actually this weekend because it's going to be in the 80's). Click here for some outfit ideas.

Way Too Matchy Match

Filed under Fashion Tips & Finds
"It's way too matchy match" is a phrase I use so often that even my kids know what I mean! My pet peeve has little to do with color. To me style should look effortless and when the pieces you're wearing are too matchy match it looks intentional. Take for example my favorite pattern stripes. I always have a striped tank, a striped scarf, or a striped sweater (like the one below) on hand whenever I feel something is a little too matchy match. My general rule of thumb is, if it's going to be a matchy match kinda outfit I'd rather go the monochromatic way and use the color head to toe. Intentional? Heck yeah but it's a minimalist style that so chic – it supposed to be intentional. Below I paired one of favorite striped sweaters, polka dot denim top and ankle zip skinnies.

Peplum & Purple From Marshall's

Filed under Fashion Tips & Finds
Happiness is walking into a store at the last minute before going out and finding exactly what you're looking for…and that's exactly what happened Saturday night. I frantically walked into Marshall's looking for a peplum top and not only did I find it, but the details were perfect: The zipper down the back was amazing and the slighty puffed shoulder on the lace three quarter length sleeves was beyond cute. Best of all it was only $19.99! The peplum top is super flattering and I'm sure I can wear it with a few different outfits. This time I paired it with a simple purple skirt and Vince Camuto heels that I got at Dillards on sale, my entire outfit (excluding the bag and jewelry) was under $60! FYI I always carry a tote with me and this particular gold one from meet mark is my current favorite for carrying essentials like flats, makeup etc. for evenings.
Peplum top $19.99 at Marshall's, skirt $7.99 at Marshall's, Vince Camuto heels $30 at Dillard's (sold out similar version here), the always perfect tote $38 c/o meetmark.com, arrow bracelets from Forever21 (sold out similar one here) and the gurl white bracelet c/o Twisted Silver , sunglasses c/o Stunglasses.com (also seen here)

Shirley also had a painting I gifted to her many years ago. One of my octopus ink paintings of a covered bridge that I photographed on the way to visit my mom years ago.
Shirley has a neat little garden area that her husband John made for her along their front walkway and the Dahlias have done well there.
We had a wonderful lunch and chatted away.. I forgot to take a photo of the chopped salad but did get this shot of our dessert. Yum!
I found the neatest handmade gift bags for the girl's gifts.. :-)
And gave Roberta and Shirley each a handblown glass pumpkin for their fall decor. We had a lively discussion on our current political situation. The 4 of us agree on things, so that is good. :-) I won't say anymore about it.. :-X
We added a pumpkin by the back door.. come on in. :-)
I'm heading off to the pool soon.. I was hoping to go on a scenic drive today but that fell through. :-) What are you doing today? ((hugs)), Teresa :-)

Food and Nutrition Technical Assistance Project: On a Mission of Transformational Change
Monday (real name withheld) is a 39-year-old PLHIV (People Living with HIV), whose means of sustenance is taxi driving. He resides in Rivers state and was diagnosed with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in 2013. Following series of other confirmational tests and clinical assessments, he commenced Anti-Retroviral medication in 2014 at Braithwaite Memorial Specialist Hospital (BMSH). According to Mr. Monday….
"I have been coming for my drugs every month in this facility and whenever I come the nurse will check my blood pressure and weight. Occasionally, my body temperature is checked as well. Nobody in the facility talks to me about these measurements and its implication. I am only given my drugs and told my next appointment date. Sometime in December 2016, when I came to the facility to pick my drugs, I was surprisingly told to climb on an equipment. This was absolutely new to me, and after that I was told to have a seat and shown a wheel known as BMI wheel. She explained that this wheel will reveal if am eating well and getting enough nutrients. After she took me through a well-designed nutritional assessment, it revealed that I was underweight and so I was told I needed to start eating well. I was then given dietary guidance and three sachets of Soya plus (a food supplement)."
Monday returned to the facility on the 28th of February 2017, for his follow-up visit. This time around, his weight had improved with a 3.4kg upward spike on his weight. He was more vibrant, full of energy and attesting to the positive difference in his health and well-being. Monday is just one of the many who have benefitted from the "nutritional and counselling support (NACS) model of the FANTA project.
Between the months of August and December 2016, 1,212 PLHIV visited participating health facilities for the first time, and 65% of them received nutritional assessments, classification and quality counseling. NACS is designed to strengthen nutrition services across the continuum of care that guides and tracks clients over time, including nutrition screening and assessment, prevention and treatment of malnutrition, and community follow-up. Where health facilities lack resources to identify malnourished people outside of health facilities or to track people who have been treated for malnutrition once they return home.

How do I handle awkward questions about the death?
Be prepared to hear words that are intended to comfort but are awkward or seem inappropriate, such as, "You'll get over it," "It was her time," or, "I know exactly how you feel because I lost my little Chihuahua last week." While these types of questions may be bad funeral etiquette, understand that many people just aren't sure what to say or how to say it.
Expect many questions regarding the circumstances of your loved one's passing, especially if it was sudden, unexpected, or involved an accident. Be prepared with a brief response and remember that you aren't obligated to tell the entire story. Most people simply want to give you an opportunity to talk, although you may cross paths with those whose morbid curiosity won't be satisfied without hearing every detail. Including the cause of death in the obituary, if appropriate, can alleviate some of these questions.
Above all, if it is possible, be gracious to all who express sympathy, regardless of how inconsiderate or unfeeling their remarks might appear. They will someday be in your place and understand what is and isn't inappropriate.
Attending Funeral Services: Arrive early.
- Services often are delayed because of the people who show up five minutes before the starting time and find they have to park a block away and then try to find a seat, perhaps after the service has already started.
- If there is a registry or guestbook, be sure to sign it with your first and last names and, if appropriate, your relationship to the deceased ("co-worker," "friend," "colleague," "college roommate"). It is important to the family to see who attended the service, and they may use the registry to send thank-you notes.
- Don't try to seek out the family before the service; if you find that they are greeting people, keep your interaction brief and find your seat quickly. Sit toward the front only if you are a member of the family; close friends generally sit behind the family, while those who are co-workers or acquaintances sit further back or in the rear.

An updated City Health Check for 1st July to 31st December, 2017 detailed some very positive changes to the City, since the City Centre Management Group was formed in early 2013. The report was presented by Mr. Billy Duggan, Waterford Council Economic Dept.
Cllr. Eddie Mulligan commented that he could remember not so long back, when there was very little footfall in the Michael Street area of the City and property vacancy was almost 50% in this particular street. Michael Street and John Street needed such a cleanup that following their lobbying to the CCMG. Waterford Council painted the buildings in Michael Street and John Street to start the renaissance of this area. A City "Health Check" in July 2014 showed a vacancy rate of 18% for City Centre Shop occupancy. This highlighted one in five business premises were closed or empty in the city.
Fast forward to January 2018 and the 2017 City Health Check shows the vacancy rate is now around 5% which means that only one in twenty businesses are closed and empty in the city. Collr. Mulligan credits the people of Waterford with a change in attitude to supporting local businesses and shops. "A focused, hard working CCMG team, which initiated game changing projects such as Purple Flag accreditation and Safe City, are now seeing results. With Waterford Council delivering competitive, extra parking spaces in areas like the new Waterside car park. The delivery of targeted economic support Grants, to encourage new businesses to occupy empty buildings, all helping to turn the fortunes for the Cit.
In July 2014 there were 4,095 parking spaces in the City, and in January 2018 there are 4,400 spaces. With €1 per hour and €3.60 per day parking available in Council car parks and all car parks are reporting increased occupancy.
Five years ago, another key aim of the Group was to work together with stakeholders to increase footfall. Various programmes were initiated to ensure a much greater connectivity between the Viking Triangle and the heart of the City Centre, John Roberts Square. New footfall counters were installed around the City, in early 2017 and comparing like with like shows there has been a 48% increase in footfall over the past five years, in areas such as Georges Street, this traditionally being the highest footfall street in the City. These footfall counters also show that the pillar festivals events, such as Spraoi, Harvest Festival, Winterval and Summer in the City, are vitall footfall generators.
Notwithstanding this success one of the foremost issues, concerning businesses and citizens alike, in the City Centre, is that of the continuing concerns around teenage anti-social behaviour. A new working group which will be chaired by Cllr.
Mulligan was approved by Lar Power, Deputy CEO of Waterford Council and Chair of the City Centre Management Group. Volunteers to the committee are Cllr. Breda Brennan, Claire Loughnane (Waterford Council), Michael Murphy (WIT Students Union), Brian Moore (Waterford Port) and a Garda nomination.
The majority of retailers and businesses in the City reported some sort of economic stability in 2017, for the first time in ten years. "It is with renewed confidence and a successful collaborative strategy, supported by Waterford Council, that we can now visualise a City, which will, in the foreseeable future, regain our rightful place as the economic driver of the South East," commented Collr. Mulligan.

Following many news surrounding the cast of Hate Story 4, we have finally received the confirmation from the makers that Urvashi Rautela is going to play the lead role enacting a supermodel persona on the silver screen this time around.
Urvashi Rautela who previously appeared in an item song in 'Kaabil' is all set to comeback as an actor with 'Hate Story 4'. Hate Story franchise has established itself as one of the most popular erotic female-centric film series. After the lukewarm success of the previous three instalments, the makers are all set to cast a fresh face in the fourth film of the series.
Confirming the news of her casting in the movie, the actress delightfully said:
"I have been into modelling since the age of 16 when I started walking the ramp for some of the best-known fashion labels. Subsequently, I won the Miss Asian supermodel title in South Korea. I am excited about playing this role on screen. When you have lived that kind of life and when you are portraying it on screen, it becomes easy for an actor."
The actress was quite happy to portray the role of a supermodel in the movie as she has been in the modelling career for a very long time now. Urvashi thinks that portraying a role that she has been doing since she was 16 years old is going to be easy for her. Talking furthermore about her character in the movie, Urvashi added:
"It is completely different from the earlier franchises and I am the hero in the film."
Urvashi Rautela says the movie is going to be completely different from the previous films of the franchise. Though, one thing is confirmed that it is going to be revenge saga where the female lead will take revenge of a certain mishappening. However, as the actress revealed that it is going to be a fresh story, it is for sure that we have a new tale to know this time with Hate Story 4.
The actress will fly to London alongside the entire shooting team of Hate Story 4 on September 21. The release date of the film is still unknown. However, now in addition to Aksar 2 and Julie 2, we have Hate Story 4 that is belonging to the same genre now. It will interesting to see if all of these films are able to get the hit tag and strengthen the firm hold of erotic genre in Bollywood in the future after their release.
What do you think about Urvashi Rautela's casting in Hate Story 4? Are you excited to watch the movie? Share your opinion in the comments section. Also, stay updated with UMD daily for receiving latest Bollywood news and box office collection information.

Nowadays, increasing numbers of people head to medical facilities because of health problems. This is exactly why there is a need for additional pair of hands out there in the field, helping save people's lives. These people are none other than certified nursing assistants or CNA.
An accredited training is among the requirements to getting certified. And this training has fees. While there are cities such as Schenectady offering cheaper price at $400, there are those which can go as high as $1000, similar to Schenectady. This is absolutely a blow to your budget, but if you just know where to look, there is actually a decent solution: go and locate yourself a free CNA Training.
Free classes are normally offered at hospitals, nursing homes, and rehab centers. This offer is also for the benefit of the institution since they get to train future CNAs that can help them with the facilities' operations. After all, the expense of looking and training a fresh hire is almost the same as the CNA training class tuition. There are a few hospitals and nursing homes that require payback services from their graduates. Another option to acquire free training classes is by heading to your local government employment office or giving them a call. Good thing is they likewise have the initiative of spreading this news to the public. Also, the state offers various scholarship programs for CNA hopefuls. This is the scenario in New York.
State governments also fund CNA scholarship programs. The majority of your CNA training courses are paid for through these scholarships and grants. And one cannot forget the option of going into the internet for free training classes, as this is one of the most preferred options by the majority. Free training sessions coupled with free food, no fare, and no unwanted disruptions is just amazing. With the broad scope of the web, you are one step closer to having reliable free CNA training that will help secure your future in the medical industry.Author: Paula Shelton

After you have contacted your friends and family, it is important to get in touch with your community. When getting in touch with people you might not know personally, focus on letting them know how supporting your GoFundMe will positively impact their life. People like to support causes when they receive an emotional reward from doing so. Figuring out how to offer that positive experience is key to receiving support from the community.
Find The "Feel Good Factor"
Successful "feel good" businesses all offer one thing: positive social change. Toms, Warby Parker and Pura Vida Bracelets (to name a few) all offer their customers the "feel good factor" when purchasing their product. Toms donates a pair of shoes, Warby Parker donates a pair of eyeglasses and Pura Vida sells bracelets made straight from the source in Costa Rica.
To apply this idea to your GoFundMe, start thinking about ways that reaching your end goal will benefit your donors. For example:
Are you raising money for a new car? Offer free rides on every Friday for the next month to any of your donors.
Looking to make ends meet for the month? Offer to pay it forward by spending the next Saturday volunteering at an organisation selected by your donors.
- Looking to pay for your upcoming vacation? Offer your donors a "first person view" of your vacation by live streaming for 30 minutes each day, or promise to support local businesses by dining at local restaurants only.
Though this can take some creativity, it will be well worth the effort if you can reach your goal.
Capitalise on Community Events
Whether you live in an flat, house, dorm, farm or RV, chances are you live in some type of community. Most of these communities offer events which you should attend to share your GoFundMe!
Get in touch with the event organiser to see if you can volunteer your time to help and in exchange the event can promote your GoFundMe. Promotion can be anything from having your GoFundMe flyers on the welcome table, hanging a banner in the room, adding your GoFundMe link to the promotional materials or even speaking publicly about your GoFundMe. This can be especially beneficial if the event corresponds with your overall goal.
Pro Tip: Find local community events here
Post Signs... Everywhere!
You can find a campaign sign in your GoFundMe Dashboard, all you have to do is press 'print!' Campaign signs are most effective when hung around places where you normally visit. If you regularly attend concerts, see if you can hang your sign at your local venue. Or if you have a favourite coffee shop, ask the owner if you can post a few flyers for customers to see on their way out.
Get creative with these ideas and think of anywhere and everywhere that you can. Bars, pubs, rock climbing gyms, community centres, YMCA's and even local repair shops are all fair game.
Pro Tip: Have you considered contacting your local media?

A tip of a fin poked out from the water. "Look at that!" I exclaim, looking up from the quadrat, where I was busily measuring plant heights during a day of monitoring at one of our restoration sites.
"Look at what?" my field partner replies.
"That," I say, "Look at that," I now say again excitedly as the other fin pokes out of the water.
"Oh… a bat ray," he says as he spots it, letting his clipboard drop for a moment. This time, we both look away from our monitoring for a moment. We watch as the bat ray glides along the shoreline, inadvertently exposing one fin out of the water while the other moved the bay mud beneath in search for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The Myliobatis californica, otherwise known as the bat ray, is readily found in the San Francisco Bay. Traveling solitarily or in groups, bat rays can live in a wide range of salinities and can be found in the ocean, as well as the bay. Known to dig holes in the mud looking for their prey, which they create by suctioning their body on and off the sandy or muddy bottom, bat rays eat molluscs, crustaceans and small fish. Chomping down things like whole crabs, shell and all, it spits out the hard parts, leaving only the fleshy inside for its eating.
Female bat rays are larger than male bat rays and can have a wingspan of up to 6 feet and weigh up to 200 pounds. Females get pregnant annually in the spring or summer and are pregnant for 9-12 months, with pups, or baby bat rays emerging from the mother live. A relative to sting rays, they too have a stinger or spine but are not known to sting unless in self-defense. Interestingly, pups emerge from their mothers with a built in sheath over their spine, which falls off shortly after birth.
Bat rays are known to jump out of the water and skim along the surface. I have yet to see this myself but fingers crossed, will someday. There are many spots that bat rays can be seen from the shoreline and Save the Bay's restoration sites. Bat rays can be seen most easily by us along the shoreline at low tide. One good spot to look for them in Oakland is at the bridge that crosses over the outlet of New Marsh in the Martin Luther King Shoreline (check out our map). I can't guarantee that you will see them here, but if you are patient, it is very possible, and it is definitely worth the wait.
Next time you volunteer with us, you might see a bat ray for yourself — www.savesfbay.org/volunteer.

Welcome to the Paniolo Hall of Fame!
The Paniolo Hall of Fame was initiated by the O`ahu Cattlemen's Association in 1999 to recognize yesterday's and today's paniolo statewide who have contributed to keeping Hawai`i's paniolo heritage alive, and to honor those who made the paniolo culture legendary.
Now in its 18th year, including our 2017 inductees, there are 146 members, both living and deceased, in the Paniolo Hall of Fame. All of the islands are represented by its members.
All of these paniolo are selected through a nomination process. The Paniolo Hall of Fame mails out the criteria and nomination forms annually. Anyone may request and submit a nomination form.
The Paniolo Hall of Fame presently consists of photo portraits, short biographies and oral history interviews. The portrait exhibit has been on display at Honolulu Hale (City Hall), at the Annual Statewide Paniolo Festival, at the Hawaii Cattlemen's Council annual meeting, at Parker Ranch Museum, the Hawaii State Library and numerous events and venues on all the islands. It continues to circulate to various locations statewide and may be requested by contacting Paniolo Hall of Fame. The Paniolo Hall of Fame is on permanent display at the Paniolo Preservation Society's museum at Pukalani Stables, Waimea Hawaii.
Hawai`i's surviving paniolo are among a long and colorful chapter in Hawai`i's history that should be preserved. The Paniolo Hall of Fame Oral History project presently consists of 68 completed interviews with living Paniolo Hall of Fame members. The objective of the interview project is to capture and record the life stories of as many paniolo as possible, before they are lost to future generations. Contributions from businesses, individuals and foundations make this project possible.
The published interviews are available for purchase, and are also accessible through the Hawai`i State Library System. Go to the Inductees page to view inductee bios and interviews online.
The Paniolo Hall of Fame is grateful for the cooperation of the many paniolo scattered throughout these islands, their families, and the many sponsors big and small, who have made the Paniolo Hall of Fame possible.

Because it is made of crystal,
not glass,
and because it was a gift
from her mother,
More than fifty years ago,
when she lived in a different town,
with a different husband,
facing different challenges,
she keeps it tucked away,
In the back of a drawer, in a box
with no name, hidden but not
forgotten. Whatever healing energy
it had to give, it's already given,
and now it's just a stone,
About the size of a thumbnail,
half an inch thick, oval in shape,
purple below, white above,
with raised dots over the uneven
surface, which sparkle like silver
In the light. The setting is silver,
in two rounds, the lower round
like beads strung together.
If I look closely enough,
I can see a moose
Emerging from the purple haze,
with its antlers tilted into the white
above. Through all her troubles,
in the distant past, the not so distant
past, and the present, when the world
Sometimes seemed to be collapsing
around her, she's taken the moose
as her symbol of strength
and endurance – her ally.

Just east of the French town Calais lies a huge German Coastal battery with the name "Oldenburg"
This battery was part of the defence of the Strait of Dover like Battery Todt, Battery Lindemann and other heavy batteries in Nord-Pas-de-Calais. From these heavy batteries is battery Oldenburg the easternmost heavy battery.
This chain of batteries was built by the Germans in the French, Pas de Calais and by the British on the other side of the Strait of Dover as well. Both sides defended the Strait of Dover from invaders and ships, and bombed each other with their huge guns.
The guns used in these batteries came from railroad-guns or ship-guns. with calibres from 200 to 406 mm. They could hurl projectiles over the Strait of Dover into the borders of the enemy. Both armies on either side of the Strait of Dover had these weapons and the straight soon got nicknamed "hellfire corner".
In German battery Oldenburg is called Stp. 18, M.K.B. Oldenburg. Stp 18 means Stützpunkt 18 which stands for Military base nr 18 and M.K.B. stands for Marine Küsten Batterie – Navy Coastal Battery.
The construction of battery Oldenburg started in July 1940 after the invasion of France and was tasked to support Operation Sea lion (Unternehmen Seelöwe), the invasion of England. The battery, part of the Atlantic Wall, was under the command of 2./MAA 244 in 1941. 2./MAA stand for 2nd Battery from the Marine Artillery section nr 244 (2. Batterie/ Marine Artillerieabteilung 244 in German). At first the guns were places in a open emplacement but somewhere during 1942 they were housed in two casemates. The two guns from battery Oldenburg originate from World War One. They are from Russian origin. The German army captured them near the city of Libau, Latvia in 1915 and transported them to Germany.
The Krupp company, well known for its guns during the First and Second World War, re-chambered the guns from 255mm to the German standard 240mm and equipped them with gun shields. They were able to fire a 150 kg shell to a distance of 27 -28 km. The guns from battery Oldenburg didn't reach the English mainland as the guns of battery Todt did, but they could defend the eastern shipping route in the Strait of Dover.
Both Casemates are 35 meters long and 15 meters high above ground level. The western of the two Casemates, Turm West, is two storeys deep, while the eastern casemate, Turm East, is three storeys deep.
On the top floors there are multiple ammunition storage compartments. In the basement there are toilets and machinery facility rooms. Another staircase in the Turm East brings you to a second basement filled with rooms. This third floor is missing in the Turm West. The two casemates are situated 200 meters apart and are placed in a slight offset from each other to achieve a bigger spread with both guns.
In the vicinity of both Casemates there are personal bunkers, ammunition storage bunkers and a Fire control bunker. Behind the Turms are personnel barracks said to be used by Organisation Todt, and the battery has its own hospital bunker, which is combined with the Fire control. The personnel bunkers are Regelbau 621, 629 and there are four types VF.
The battery was defended by two Russian 7.62mm guns placed in the dunes, and three German field guns. There were numerous guns nests and grenade launcher positions.
As air defence there were four French anti aircraft guns, two English 4cm anti aircraft guns and a German 2cm flakvierling, a four barrelled gun. The battery was attacked by 4 engine bombers and defended itself, taking down 16 bombers, 6 of them were shot down by the battery defences.
After overcoming their objectives in Normandy the 3rd Canadian division stormed on the fortress of Calais in 1944. The guns from all coastal batteries pointed towards the sea and were no use to defend the batteries from inland attacks. On October the 1st in 1944 Battery Oldenburg surrendered to these Canadian forces.
Battery Oldenburg is also known as "Le Moulin Rouge".
You will find Battery Oldenburg just east of the French city of Calais. It can be visited by walking around the east side of the former barrack compound.
You will see Both Turms from quite a distance.
Be careful if you want to enter the huge guns emplacements. They are open but keep in mind that safety comes first. Your cell phone for instance probably will not work below meters of concrete in the basement. A simple call for help can suddenly not be so simple after all.
The western Turm has suffered from a internal explosion which destroyed parts of the floor and some rooms. The eastern Turm is complete.
Beware of the natural defence of the Battery. The bushes around the bunkers and in the dunes are full of nasty thorns. We let out a lots of ai's, auch-es and other foul words trying to get around the bunkers. To get this story clear; I do not even think the Germans had to use barbed wire to defend the battery, the bushes are defence enough.

Real Estate
Investing in commercial real estate can provide excellent risk-return opportunities for both the large and small investor. Unlike equity securities, commercial real estate often generates a substantial and predictable cash flow over time. The compounding effect of this cash flow can significantly enhance the performance of most investment portfolios.
eFUEL holds several revenue producing properties: Cherokee Trading Post, Florida, the Hotel Marion, Marion, Indiana, and a 188 acre tree farm. eFUEL is presently working with several government and private agencies, performing feasibility studies of the tree farm to covert this property into a solar and wind energy farm.
EAFN owns commercial and mixed-use properties in Florida, Georgia, Indiana and Ohio, slated for development. Four sites are earmarked as Cherokee Trading Malls, each including a luxury hotel, restaurants, and retail stores. Other properties in Georgia are being developed as condominium residences. Currently eFUEL holds leases on these properties. Once eFUEL's cash reserves are sufficient to support the development of the Cherokee mall projects, EAFN will place these assets into eFUEL.
Investing in real estate is one of the safest and smartest investments one can make. Real estate appreciates at a rate far greater than the rate of inflation, builds equity, provides a steady return on investment, provides cash flow, and can offer substantial tax benefits.

Chelyabinsk mystery zone: Blue snow, three Suns, meteorite explosion
From a giant meteorite unexpectedly falling from the sky to a three Suns optical illusion – the Russian city of Chelyabinsk has become the world's premier place for truly out of the blue OMG! moments. RT gives some insight into the recent madness.
For centuries, Russia's Chelyabinsk Region, located on the border between Europe and Asia, has been a defense powerhouse, arming the Tsars' forces and establishing the Soviet Union's formidable nuclear arsenal. But the region's rep for military muscle is not what's been turning heads as of late.
No, when it comes to packing in as many 'oh my God! Did you see that?' moments into one place, Chelyabinsk is the undisputed champ.
The Meteorite…
In 2013 a meteorite swan dived over the city. And not just any meteor. No, it was the largest piece of flaming space rock to hit the earth in more than a hundred years.

From VoteVets.org.
Dear VoteVets.org supporter,
You are incredible! Since we unveiled this ad on Wednesday, which targets George Allen for voting against giving our troops the right body armor, donations have poured in fast and hard. On behalf of my fellow veterans, I thank you.
Reaction has been quick and strong, as well! DailyKos said it was the most compelling ad this cycle. MyDD.com gave it an A+. PoliticsTV said it is a "very well done ad spotlighting the difference between Sen.George Allen's voting record and his rhetoric."
You helped us hold accountable those that have failed the troops. Lets do it again.
As promised, we've been keeping track of all of your votes for where the ad should run next. There have been some really interesting picks. Some people hope we keep running in Virginia, some had other places they would like to run it, and someone wrote in that the ad should be run "Against all those [expletives]!!"
I have a huge smile on my face, just knowing how enthusiastically you support the troops. Just don't ask me to take you all to dinner sometime – you've got expensive taste, and voted for some of the priciest places in America to run this ad! (And you gave us some BIG surprises too). But, we hear you, and agree with you, and we want to make this happen. We're going to need your help, though, if we're going to pull this off.
We have ads ready to go against every Senator who disgracefully voted to deny troops body armor, and if we're going to get this ad up where you'd like to see it, we are going to need to raise at least $50,000 by Tuesday.
Are you up to the challenge?
Please, send this email around to all your friends and family, and please consider making a donation. Get ready and strap yourselves in, this will be one heck of a ride!
Thank you for supporting the troops- and supporting the voice of America's 21st Century patriots.
Best Regards,
Jon Soltz
Iraq War Veteran
You can see the ad here, if you missed it.
Thankyou for running this ad. My son's life was saved by a kevlar vest in Iraq the year of 2004. His guard unit fortunately had the proper type unlike others. I read the Senate Amendment #452 George Allen and other republicans voted against on April 2,2003 that would have earmarked 1 billion dollars for guard and reservist troops armor. I wonder how many lives would have been saved by that 1 billion dollars. I am writing to our local newspaper editor to ask people to vote for Jim Webb. If they truly support the troops this is the time to show it. Thankyou and please keep me informed. Sincerely, Peggy Sims
